most are hipsters, tourists, middle class types there to get away from the misses, or families.
the 'real' fans are scattered about.
i stood up and swore at the ref (with crazy arm actions) - and hipster type looking people around me in the north looked at me like i was nuts.

Home support was absolutely excellent in GBlock WSU today. Try and get a ticket there next time if you can

I thought that we were supporters, the main part of that is support. All i hear at the AMEX is criticism, and that hurts the ability of players.

Some of the evening league games especially under Poyet were dire lets not paint a rosy picture.

Got to agree. Too many there sitting on their hands not saying a word & firing dirty glances at those that show passion & SUPPORT the Albion. They might as well pay for a ticket then stay at home and watch a stream of the game.
Too sterile & gentile. It's not the bloody theatre. You don't have to swear or sing any questionable songs. Just clap, roar the team on, boo the crap decisions and shout inoffensive stuff like "Seagulls".
When the first season at the Amex approached & they were selling season tickets, Martin Perry talked about not having a singing section as he wanted the whole stadium rocking. Won't bloody happen with the high proportion of "sensitive soul" mannequins we have currently.
Perhaps one day the Amex will be a FOOTBALL stadium.

Yep. I'm in G as well. Enjoyed the singing today. Mind you, we all sung the same songs.
I do find it amusing that people slag off our support. Home sides are often quiet. How loud were Charlton last week? or a few other teams we have played at recently. I think we are not that bad, all things considered.

Boom! There it is! Spot on. Football is "cool" but I don't like all this chanting and shouting business. Killing our game. Club needs to be proactive and start sorting this out.

Im WSU and you guys in G are what its about. Im dead centre and I can get it going. But been quiet lately away form spured me on i stood and went for it. No more than 10 tried with me at times. Just disapointing.
Only song i can get going is albion and it rung out a couple of times. But i sat there bored today.
As said too many day trippers and causual fans nothing wrong with that as its better than 7000 at withdean but killer when you look how we are away.
Brentford poor today.

I actually thought the atmosphere today was as good as it's been for a long while. WSU G Block was pretty animated.

Yep. Don't get me wrong, football is for all. Here is the thing though, if clubs like ourselves made the pricing just a wee bit more affordable, this would attract a more, let's say "traditional" kind of fan.
In turn, this creates a better atmosphere. The result of that is nothing but at the clubs benefit

I can't be too far away from you. Got to agree. Away & home are miles apart atmosphere wise. It is a gutter that so many more Brighton fans seems to result in a worse atmosphere. Worse is that the attitude of the silent fans, with their disparaging looks, puts the vocal support off.
Stand up if you love Brighton.
That considering your in the north, is a very sad story
Think the fans in this block need to swap with some in the north.
You know who you are quiet north standers, f**ck off to the east upper !!!
Therd I said it.
Well some one had to

It's probably time for a move it's not fair to expect others to as everyone prefers a different match experience. But seeing the players rise to the atmosphere at away games it's hard not want to see something similar. Because when we go for it we are class. Just to infrequent.
